So tomorrow's Halloween and we are so not ready. We've got all the materials to make our costumes but have yet to actually put them together, let alone try them on. I think it'll be a bit of a late night tonight, and then lots of last-minute adjustments tomorrow. But as long as the kids Continue Reading

Just a reminder that our Win a Nintendo Wii contest ends TOMORROW NIGHT at midnight eastern time. So if you haven't written your blog post and emailed it in to me at andrew@ultimatecoupons.com, get moving! I'll be checking my email all night tomorrow, so be sure to email me as soon as you post it! Continue Reading

Or treated. Or both actually... Tish from The Kat House just gave me the Halloween Treat award! It couldn't have been timed any better either. And no, not because Halloween's this week, but because today is Monday (which translates loosely in German to "crummiest day of week") and as luck or Murphy's Law would have Continue Reading

Everyone's heard of two left feet, right? Er, correct? Yeah, that'd be me. Can't dance for squat. But have you ever heard of unlucky feet? Well somehow, somewhere, my wife managed to grab herself a pair of real unlucky ones. Don't believe me? Okay, here's my proof: Evidence A: The sprains. Way before we were Continue Reading

It's no secret I'm a child of the '80s and still surround myself with video games, toys, music and cartoons from the bubble gum decade. So I figured it was time I started a weekly flashback column to reminisce. After all, Danielle's Flashback Friday posts are my favorite things to check out on MsDanielle.com every Continue Reading

Swimming lessons have scarred me for life. Not that I'm afraid of water or of swimming. Not at all. I'm a decent swimmer, enjoy riding the waves at the beach, and will even jump off the crazy high diving board at our local town pool. No, it's not the act of swimming that put the Continue Reading
